Ahh I got ya on the picture Frost. Last I heard on the RC-61 was nearly a year ago but it was a consideration for competition when the 1098R (1198cc) was released. I've yet to see one, and now that I think about it, this might be a rumor that is about 1.5 or 2 years old so maybe it isn't a rumor anymore, it's just a fail...
Either way, if we ever see one released, I'll be picking one up, as well as a Sato Racing exhaust. I had their Ti Slip-on on my 636 before I switched to the Ti full system from Nassert Beet. The Sato was actually louder but the Beet Racing system makes loads of power
Yeah 27 MPG on that thing sounds about right. In all honesty I was getting like 35-37 MPG on my 636 when I bought it but now get roughly 30-32. My drop is mostly due to performance modifications including a custom tune. The nearly 30k miles probably has something to do with it too.
